Hey Neil! So cool to see you go from "Do I need super-shoes?" to "these are game changers" so quickly! I will be doing my first run in my VaporFly 2s next week for my last 10k time trial before my half marathon, so I'm really glad you enjoyed them! I've been a big fan of the Saucony Endorphin Pros, but I finally purchased the Nikes! Keep pushing!

Beautiful clip, Neil! Thanks for this first impression clip on those super running shoes! 🙏Happy new week mate!

[KoiRun]

Always love that metronomic tune you use. Ya gonna have fun at your Marathon!

I enjoyed this video and the previous one about the history behind the super shoe. I think we’re coming from a similar place in holding back but I know I’ll be getting some probably for next years ‘A’ marathon. I guess it’s a case of if we can’t beat them….
What I like is that you’ve taken the leap first and it’s really interesting to hear your impressions as a new comer to this type of trainer. I’m just hoping Nike have a sale as good as last Christmas 🤞

Super shoes for the WIN! I would love to try a pair of carbon plated shoes. Awesome to see your times improve, can't wait for the full review Neil.

I've never worn Nike shoes before, but I always hear good things!

[FitnessLusya]

Thank you for good review dear friend!

[ChloeHamard]

I can understand the "barrier" you're talking about with some milestones, like weekly running distance. 68km for the week is still very good! Glad to hear that you got on really well with the Vaporfly from the first workout! I've never tried them, but maybe I should have chosen them over the Alphafly because it took me a long time to get used to these!

[ScentNomad]

It's absolutely rare and super interesting to watch you trying out your first super shoes – I think it was wise to choose the Vaporflys, they still are the gold standard; maybe not the best for everyone, but apparently still the one shoe everyone tries to match in one way or another, which makes them the perfect starting point when trying to understand what super shoes are all about.

You made the leap then. Glad you think you're getting some extra value out of them.

Would you be able to quantify that in terms of pace per mile?

Granted you have a tiny sample size.

Maurten gels are awesome. I wish they would come down in price. The shoes look awesome. I have never tried any of the super shoes.

Nice video. Glad the super shoes felt good 👍

[GillFisherRunningMySpace]

Nice shoes Neil! Will you run your ultra in them? Have a great taper weeks!

I’m pretty new to running and looking to buy my first race day shoe (for 5/10k’s), love the look of the Vaporfly just a bit worried that it might not feel right at the pace I run, I average 5–6 min kilometres, do you think the vaporfly can be used comfortably at these paces? Cheers!

Not a shoe for walking! Great fun to bounce at speed though…
